Diesel Mag subsrciptions?

the hunting magazines don't get here fast enough. I get through them and have weeks waiting for the next edition. I don't have any subscriptions (other than FTE) for diesel/trucks.
Any recommendations?

I subscribe to Power Stroke Registry and Diesel Power magazines. Occasionally, I buy a Diesel World or 8 Lug magazine at the rack.

DIESEL POWER and Diesel World are both full of great info. I will have to look into the Powerstroke Registry too.

I'll second that. I know one of the editors is a gearhead, as he's a member on a different Powerstroke board, and his truck is pretty heavily modified.

Diesel Power is the only one I have a subscription too, but I'm not just real impressed with it. Seems like a lot of their "reviews" are more of a promotion for a product than a true review. That's what a lot of advertising money will do for you. Plus, those guys don't seem like real hardcore diesel guys, but more of just a bunch of mag editors. For instance, I've seen "Cummings" in their magazine more than once. That's a simple one and should not be mistaken.

I picked up one issue of Diesel World and it will probably be the only one I ever get. Wasn't at all impressed with the content.

These are pretty much my thoughts also. I have another year left on my Diesel Power mag sub. and may not renew. I mean, how many trucks can you add a Banks whatever to. I do like their coverage of the major diesel events though.
I will be checking out Diesel Tech also.

Thanks for all the replies and feedback. I found most listed in the web to review. The only one I couldn't find is the Powerstroke Registry. Anyone able to send a link to that?
